![]() I started in the Italy of the CS Army, the Missouri State Guard. I had a theory that if I was in the West, the Eastern Theater would stalemate due to incompetence, with the deciding factor in the war being me in another theater. With 2 failed Eastern Theater games and a failed Union summer '61 game, I noticed the weird AI decisions were patterned around the army the player was in. What can be said here that hasn't been said already. So why the stockpiling of military subsides, just to blow it within 2 months? And why so late in the war? ![]() But that only applies to enemy AI (which had historical), the CSA stopped with diplomacy after level 2, and other policies were spread out well enough to dispel this. With the AI's decision making at this level, I thought they got a weird "personality," since if you pick random policies this can happen. The last year of the game I constantly had to check that same division and randomly give brigades back their guns. I also spent almost 600 prestige to outfit a full division with Sharps rifles, only for the AI to downgrade them with Mississippis. It puts the current stock into the negatives, with the void being filled with new builds. Around the time the breech loading artillery arrived, I noticed you can prestige buy weapons on order even when the stock is zero. Way too late to make a difference in the war. March of 1864 the AI grabbed Confederate Rifles, Legacy Rifles, Cavalry Reform I & II, Sharps Rifles and every artillery option within 2 months. It took 2 1/2 years for every branch to have some type of weapon. December of the next year, they finally picked the 200 yard carbine project. November of that year they got Austrian Rifles. Every possible naval project was grabbed by then, but they threw the army British Artillery. They then produced nothing else until October, 1862. ![]() ![]() The Confederate AI grabbed Rebored Muskets in August, 1861. I also did a summer '61 campaign with King Cotton, Industrialization & Southern Railroads, with difficulty on mediocre/mediocre. Note that I did a clean install before Whiskey & Lemons released. With the release of the third hotfix, I continued playing the same campaign to get a long term feel of the new DLC. I started this campaign a few days before the first pair of hotfixes released. ![]()
